Jeep Patriot - Video tutorial

Model: Jeep Patriot MK 1 - Years 2007-2017
Part: License plate light
Operation: Replace the license plate light on Jeep Patriot

Do we want to replace the license plate bulbs? Let's see how the license plate bulbs on Patriot are removed. We open the bonnet of the luggage compartment, with a screwdriver we unhook the plastic fastening of the plastic spotlight placed in the tailgate above the car license plate. Once the transparent spotlight of the lighting has been removed, we are going to extract the damaged bulb. We mount the new bulb (size and voltage equal) by inserting it in the lamp holder, we go to reassemble the glass of the spotlight in the tailgate that covers the luggage compartment. We turn on the bulbs for a test.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
